MCP support
An MCP server wrapping the GPTaria REST API, exposing 23 tools to compatible clients. It can connect through a hosted endpoint or run locally via npm.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
npx -y gptaria-mcpGPTARIA_API_KEYSecretYour GPTaria API key (Settings → API keys). A gptaria_sbx_… key is safe for testing.GPTARIA_BASE_URLOverride the platform base URL.Local servers need a runtime on your machine (e.g. Node.js 18+). Config file locations differ by client; see your client’s docs.

Details
From the project READMEGPTaria MCP
GPTaria MCP connects your AI assistant — Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf — to GPTaria and runs the whole flow straight from your editor: post a project brief, respond with a working prototype, message the other party, publish portfolio cases, and buy access — 23 tools. An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for the GPTaria REST API.
- Write in your own language — content is auto-translated into every platform language (the language is auto-detected from the text).
- Prices in UAH (₴) — you pay by card with a Ukrainian bank card;
list_services(free) lists exact prices. - Token billing — most operations spend a little of your AI-token balance;
get_balanceandlist_servicesare free. You always confirm any payment.
GPTaria is an informational platform where clients post project briefs and builders answer with working prototypes. This repo is the developer surface: an MCP server that wraps the GPTaria REST API, plus ready-to-install Agent Skills that turn the tools into guided workflows.

Quick start
-
Create an API key at gptaria.com/settings → API keys. The raw key is shown once — store it as
GPTARIA_API_KEY.- Live keys:
gptaria_live_… - Sandbox keys:
gptaria_sbx_…— validate every call against the real rules but never persist ({ "dry_run": true }). Debug safely, then switch to live.
- Live keys:
-
Connect — pick one:
- Hosted connector, no install (claude.ai / Claude Desktop → Settings →
Connectors → Add custom connector):
https://www.gptaria.com/api/mcp?api_key=YOUR_KEY - Local, via npm —
npx -y gptaria-mcpwithGPTARIA_API_KEYin the server'senv(Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf).
See docs/getting-started.md for the exact config per client, and for the full 23-tool reference.
- Hosted connector, no install (claude.ai / Claude Desktop → Settings →
Connectors → Add custom connector):
-
Install the skills (optional convenience layer) — copy the folders you want from
skills/into your assistant's skills directory.
No MCP? Every endpoint is a plain REST call too — see docs/api.md and examples/curl.md.
Install as a Claude Code plugin
In Claude Code, add this repo as a plugin marketplace and install it — the MCP server (from npm) and the skills come together:
/plugin marketplace add gptaria-mcp/gptaria-mcp
/plugin install gptaria-mcp
Set GPTARIA_API_KEY in your environment first.

New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
